of the same frustrations you express. >> our next call comes from john calling from san antonio, texas. sit back and give me a few minutes if you do not host: mind not a few minutes, we do not have that much time. caller: nobody has really talked about government sacrifice. the only way you are going to solve what you have, you cannot continue to pay government employees more money than we taxpayers can afford to pay. any business or they pay more money out to the employees -- we pay more money to the employees that the company takes in, that company is going to be bankrupt or seek protection while he gets rid of the problems he created by paying so much money to so many people. it is the same thing with you guys in congress. you have janitor's making $69,000 in the public sector while objectors who paid their wages in the private sector only makes $20,000. i am sorry, you are not worth it. if you want to cut the, cut the department of education. don't cut it over 10 years, cut it over one day. at the department of energy. but it today. that is a real cut. anything else, 5% here or 10% ther

happens but i hope that doesn't happen, i hope that the governor of texas moves up and faces the current president of the united states. >>neil: what about gingrich? >>guest: i met him a couple of times, i was showing the series on reinventing america, and i was showing that to my prisoners in the jail so i met him a couple of times. >>neil: what do you think is the one big quality sheriff that even the illegal we issue notwithstanding that you want to see in the next president? >>guest: well, i want to see a president that keeps his word. i want to see a president that is tough on crime. and drugs. and immigration. that will take the chance to do things, get it done, not just talk about it. not just being a robot made in japan and all the debates, and be glib. i know the governor has had some problems but he speaks from the heart, so i want a regular guy to get if there and get the job done, like he has been doing as the governor of texas, the second largest state in our country. so, i think after 12 years as governor and keeps getting re-elected, some like him in texas. >>neil: there i

, and the work that heather and rock the vote is doing. in the state of texas, if you have a student i. dishes, you can no longer use that student i.d. in order to vote. however, however, you can use a gun license in order to vote in the state of texas. so, again, it's a question not so much about howç we vote, bua question of who is voting. >> heather, what message are we sending to young americans, when you can use a gun license as i.d., but not a college student's i.d. as i.d. to vote? what are we saying to young people in this country? >> i know, it's unreal. whether that's in texas or wisconsin, where they finally said, fine, you can use your student i.d. to vote, but it has to meet this whole set of criteria, which as it turns out not a single stay tuned i.d. in the state actually meets. we're telling people once you're in power you get to choose your electorate, so it is rock the vote and what we're trying to do is flip that on its head and say they can't stop us, they can't decide who gets to vote in this democracy, but in fact we will stand up and we will vote on election day and ma

governor for texas for nearly 1 1 years, they have become the second largest economy in the country. you look at his record, while under president obama, we've lost 2 million jobs. under governor perry, texas created 1 million jobs, nearly 40% have been in texas. he has cut taxes now 65 times, $14 billion, revamped the texas tort system. as a result, got a great economic record that he can run on. he can show that he has delivered results. i think that the challenge for president obama -- he's a great speaker, ran a great campaign four years ago. he had never run anything before he became president of the united states. and i think the voters are looking for a candidate with executive experience, with a proven track record. that's what rick perry can offer. >> but right now, republicans apparently are splitting between at this point mitt romney and newt gingrich and i know the way this race has gone, one half of that equation seems to change every couple weeks. but are you comfortable if it does come down to a choice between mitt romney and newt gingrich if governor perry doesn't make it

to vote. student i.d.s in texas issued by a university. but if you have a gun permit issued by the state of texas, then it is. it's so obvious and transparent but not obvious to the average voter who expects that they would have easy access to the polls. this is mirk afterall. we should be trying to encourage voting. that is what the democratic party has said for 50 years. they're trying to rig the election. >> talking about the democrats who are said to be afraid of mitt romney. let's let the president and his hench men keep doing it. that's good news for us from a political perspective. is the president making a mistake? >> we're focusing on mitt romney because american voters should be afraid of the prospect of mitt romney becoming president of the united states. this person has no mor recall core, no conviction. bring afghanistan home. both sides americans do want to make sure where it stands. mitt romney probably has trouble keeping track of where he stands on any given day. we think that is important information for voters to have so they know what they are getting when they cast a
